WATCH – Customer success story | biocrates life sciences
Background
Including metabolites in multi-omics studies proves challenging for many scientific teams. The vast scale of data produced, combined with the technical expertise required to analyze and interpret it, means that teams often miss out on the insights these metabolites can offer.
Democratization of metabolomics through enhanced access to expertise, mass spectrometry equipment, and suitable analysis kits is one answer to the problem, claims Austrian biotech biocrates life sciences. “The goal of this for our customers is to get deeper insights into metabolism and a refined picture of health,” said Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Alice Limonciel. Scientific teams can combine the metabolite results with their other omics data for a more complete, systems-level view of biology.
VUGENE’s solution
biocrates knew there was more their customers could gain from their metabolite data if they could intelligently combine it with their genomics, RNA, proteomics, or other omics layers. Therefore, in 2024, they entered into a partnership with VUGENE, a data science company specializing in advanced multi-omics data integration solutions for life sciences.
Together, they offer a multi-omics data analysis service that combines metabolite measurements with complementary omics datasets via advanced AI to automatically identify biologically relevant relationships for biocrates’ customers. “They don’t have to worry about what they’re going to do with the data,” said VUGENE’s Founder and Chief Technology Officer, Dr. Juozas Gordevičius. “The data will speak to them.”
Dr. Limonciel said three factors confirmed that partnering with VUGENE for this project was the right choice:
- They take the time to understand their customers and what is needed in the analysis.
- They have a broad variety of experts. These experts don’t just do what you ask; they advise you and help you make an even better plan for what you want to achieve.
- They deliver. They don’t just do the work well; they make it a pleasure to work together. You don’t find that everywhere.
